VNUnet: IBM unveils new chips, PCs and Internet appliances

"Big Blue plans to reveal the processor technology on Wednesday,
which it claims will enable it to build chips that require only
half the power and run as much as five times faster than existing
chips, at speeds up to 4.5GHz."

"...IBM also plans to roll out a raft of new PCs in the
spring, including the IBM Internet Appliance - an all-in-one
flatpanel PC, a low cost desktop, a Linux based network station,
and a thin client that will fit on the back of a flatpanel
monitor."

"Maria DeGiglio, an analyst at financial services company DH
Andrews, said: 'This is not just hardware and software, it's the
tools, support and solutions. It's a huge undertaking and IBM is
the one company that can handle it.' "
